Ukraine is reportedly using Russian oil to fuel Western-supplied tanks for the battle. German newspaper Handelsblatt reported that Kyiv is using Russian oil refined in Hungary and Turkey to power its battle tanks. The report says Kyiv is "entirely dependent" on oil imports, majorly supplied by Budapest. Hungary's oil and gas giant MOL has "doubled its sales to Ukraine in the past six months", says Handelsblatt. Hungary, though an EU member, has a special waiver to import crude oil from Russia via pipelines. Watch this video for details.
